  • Driving it

    4 out of 5 4.0

    What's it like to drive?

    Unmistakably brilliant. A real head turner. This is a cruising car without a doubt. With the 250 diesel engine, you don't go hooning it places. You crack the roof down, turn up the air scarf which wafts you to destination in comfort and style. If driven enthusiastically, expect a little wallowing. It's a heavy car after all and you wouldn't want to compromise that with a poor stiff ride. The chassis has lost its roof which does lead it to having a slightly less responsive and sporty feel to it. I wouldn't say it's like driving a marshmallow but it's no C63 AMG. Breaks are good and powerful with responsive steering. To me, it was an absolute pleasure to drive. A true gob smackingly beautiful car. Well done Merc on this Mid-high range car.

    What's it like to park?

    With the self parking, No problem. With the mirrors, never had a problem. Surprisingly not bad on blindspots and with the parking sensors, you can trust you wont hit anything as long as you keep an eye in your side mirrors.

  • Living with it

    What's most practical about your car?

    The roof folds away at traffic lights really quick.

    Favourite gadget, option or accessory?

    Air scarf blowing hot air around your neck keeping you warm with the heated seats.
